    Choose just ONE current and ONE all-time.

    My currently active favorite in Oleksandr Usyk.

    My all-time favorite is Rocky Marciano.

    Both were small for heavyweight, but overcame the odds and defeated much bigger men.

    Iron Mike for me. Very cliche pick but there was a very different feel to his fights that haven’t been there since.

    More recently, loved Pacquiao

    Frank Sanchez/Micheal Hunter/Ioka from the active ones.

    All-time is tricky, but to make it simple I'll say: George Foreman, Sandy Saddler, Archie Moore.

    .. closely followed by Norton, Carnera, Walcott, Lyle, Locche, Hagler.
